The Greatest Sale of any XtXedl ? - . clue la the 'World! SoIIoway's Pills and Ointment. To Mr. J. K. Heydon, Goulburn, August 29th, 1 849. SIR,— I send you the following particu lars of a case that has just come to my knowledge, thinking it would be acceptable and tend still further to establish the good repute of Holloway'fl Pills and Ointment. A Mr. Thomas Clark, a settler at Curra wang, Lake George, was for a considerable time seriously afflicted with a complaint of his liver, together with the gravel. His medical attendants, after trying all their skill for a considerable time, candidly gave their opinion that his case was hopeless, and declined any further effort as useless. In this situation, and when expecting every day would terminate his earthly career, a friend providentially called on him, and in the course of conversation enquired if he had ever tried Holloway's Pills, which he assured him had cured a friend of his simi larly situated ; he replied that he had not; being...

HOW IRISH PAUPERS ARE SHIPPED TO ENGLAND. Captain Denham has just published his re port on passenger accommodation in steamers between Ireland and Liverpool.' He says that he was received most courteously by the commanders of such paddle-wheel steamers as he went on board of, ' When' 1 measured tueaeiuai deck syauc which I.' found between the cattle-pens at different parts of the deck, where the deck passengers; of both sexes had endured the previous night, and which space did not yield an area of more than one square yard to two persons, with not enough tarpaulins to cover a fourth part, whilst the whole deck was afloat with animal mire, my appeal to them as mariners and fellow- men was, whether such ought to be, and how was it ? the exclamations were to the effect : ', Why, sir, it all lies with the agents, whose busi ness and interest it is to cram the vessel and shove us off, little thinking or caring about the night's anxiety we have to drag through, so his freight list looks w...

Country News, CAuCOATt. Mounted Police.— The Mounted Police .force' stationed at Carcoar have been removed from the-' district an i ordered th Sydney. Tho stores be-... longing to the corps were put up to pub[ic auction on Tuesday last, and sold. From what wo can learn, their removal lias created a feeling of regret, amongst tho inhabitants of tho place, whotoro satis fied that their services can bo ill dispensed with. Although favourable to economy in tho cxpondi-. tnro of the public fuuds, wo are of opinion that the indiscriminate cutting and slashing of our Colonial Legislative Political Economists during the discus sion of the Estimates will, in some cases, bo pro ductive of much harm to tho country. At all events, they appear to bo mos grossly ignorant of the requirements of tho district of Carcoar.

A half frantic fellow, mounted on a spirited horse, was gallopping at the top of his speed, for the purpose, as it appeared, of intercept ing the progress of some cattle which had just then (in defiance of all his execrations, expostulations and obju...

SHOCKING' MURDER, AND SUICIDE OF THE MURDERER. (From the Geelong. Aduertiser, Oct. 20th.) The usually very quiet and peaceable neighbourhood of South Geelong, was at a very early hour on Thursday morning thrown into the greatest state of excitement and alarm by a report that two persons had been murdered in a small weatherboard building near to the Nelson's Victory public house, at the north end of the township. Several persons hastened to the spot indi cated, when the report, which hnd been raised by a female residing in the house where the horrible catastrophe had been committed was found to be too authentic. The sight which presented itself in the room to the horrified spectators was un speakably awful. On a bed, the bed-clothes of which had been partly turned down, was the dead bodies of a man and female ; a pair of pistols lay on a pillow between the two, and the dreadful appearance in the head of each, spoke too plainly to what purpose the weapons had been employed. Never was ...
